A lot of these should not be called breaking changes. A new API is not a breaking change if the old API remains.
Yeah but those changes break clients as soon as they turn down the old API.
Indeed, dropping the old API would be the breaking change.
Rich Hickey did a fantastic talk on versioning, breaking changes, and dependencies.
